  when you start to read these type of things and read some of the heated spats in the forum, fortunately it is not the majority but these type of things won't help support or encourage live events... absolutely crazy how fanatical some people get over games... probably good that we have an invisible barrier of sorts on WGT : )

  man bites finger off of fellow golfer...

  gamer shoots competitors....

  The two stories i linked... one about a golfer biting the finger off of another in a confrontation.... the other was about a gamer that shot and killed 2 people after losing and injuring a number of others...  if you clicked on the links they should have worked

  Hi Ed,

  Yes, some people take things way to seriously in gaming and other matters.  In the heat of the moment they just seem to lose control over their emotions and lash out.  It is such a shame that they do not think ahead as to the consequences of their actions. 

  This is the world we live in now a days though and I do not see that changing. 

  Blessings,
